The quilted surface adds an extra layer of comfort, while the waterproof barrier guards against spills, sweat, and stains. It also helps defend against one of the most common bedding nuisances of all: dust mites.
Do Pillow Protectors Stop Dust Mites?
Dust mites are a huge concern for many UK families, especially those with family members who have allergies or asthma. Dust mites love pillows because they collect hair and skin particles that these tiny pests eat. Without protection, a pillow can become heavily infested by dust mites and their allergens.
Quality pillow protectors are an effective barrier against dust mites. The tightly woven fabric with their microscopic holes stop dust mites from entering or exiting the pillow while still allowing air and moisture to pass through. This encasement method works so well that certified hypoallergenic pillow protectors are made to keep out the allergens produced by dust mites, including Der f 1 and Der p 1, which are common triggers for allergic reactions and asthma symptoms.
Using a hypoallergenic pillow protector and regularly washing it is a great way to keep dust mites away. When used with pillowcases that are also washed once a week, pillow protectors can drastically reduce your exposure to these allergens and make your sleeping environment that much cleaner.
